War and Peace ("La Guerre et la Paix") drawing on the vault of the Temple of Peace (Temple de la Paix, or Chapelle de la paix). Vallauris 1961.
A view of Pablo Picasso’s monumental mural, 'War and Peace' ('La Guerre et la Paix'), on the vault of the Temple of Peace in Vallauris, 1961. Against a dark, geometrically partitioned background, simplified figures are rendered in white paint with bold black outlines. The composition features a reclining mother and child under a vine with grapes, a figure leaning over a bowl, and, below, a person crouched in a posture of despair or deep thought. Visible brushstrokes give the modernist artwork a textured appearance.
